Biochemical and physiological indicators of behavioral impairment in salmonids exposed to chlorpyrifos and copper

Creator:

Sandahl, Jason

Abstract:

The purpose of this work was to determine if environmentally-relevant concentrations of chlorpyrifos and copper, two commonly detected chemicals in Western surface waters, can negatively impact the biological health of salmonids. Both compounds are highly neurotoxic to fish, but each with distinct biological target sites and mechanisms of action. We...
